Song available on Iron & Wine website. It will be featured on the new album "Kiss each other clean" releasing on January 25, 2011. I have updated this tab after a quick look at Sam Beam's "Tiny Desk Concert" on NPR Chords used: Bb Eb Cm [The chords can also be played on Capo 3 (as in the concert mentioned above) where you will have following: G C Am (instead of Bb Eb Cm respectively)] STANDARD TUNING Intro: |-----------|--------------| |-----------|--------------| |-----------|--------------| |---------8-|------------8-| |-----------|-------8-10---| |-(6)-------|-(6)----------| Bb (x1333x@1) Eb||---------------------|-----------------------| (x43121@3)||o--------------------|-----------------------| ||---------------------|-----------------------| ||---------------------|-----------------------| ||o---8--10-10s12-10-8-|----10--12-12s13-12-10-| ||---------------------|-----------------------| Cm (x3101x@1) Bb|-----------------------|----------------------|| (x1333x@1)|-----------------------|---------------------o|| |-----------------------|----------------------|| |-----------------------|----------------------|| |----10--12-12s13-12-10-|----8--10-10s12-10-8-o|| |-----------------------|----------------------|| [This continues behind the singing] Two chord progressions are present in the song: I: Bb | Eb | Cm | Bb II: Eb | Bb | Cm | Bb [Chord progression I] Bb (x1333x@1) Eb (x43121@3) Maryanne, do you remember Cmthe (x3101x@1)tree by the river Bbwhen (x1333x@1)we were seventeen? (same chords) Dark canyon wall, the call and the answer and the mare in the pasture pitch black and baring its teeth. I recall the sun in our faces, stuck and leaning on braces, and being strangers to change. Radio and the bones we found frozen, and all the thorns and the roses beneath your window pane. [Chord progression II] Eb (x43121@3) Bb (x1333x@1) Now I'm asleep in a car, I mean the world Cmto (x3101x@1)a potty mouthed girl, Bba (x1333x@1)pretty pair of blue-eyed birds.

Dark canyon road, I was coy in the half-moon; happy just to be with you, and you were happy for me. Chord: Bb: 688766 Eb: 668886 Cm: 335543
